When I am trying to run git commit -m 'message here' I am getting following error.

fatal: cannot exec '.git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg': Permission denied

This issue started after when I created a new partition on my ubuntu and cloned the repo in it.

ubuntu-20.04 githooks git

You'll need to make your file executable, the below code snippet will make the file executable for the owner, the group and the world:

$ chmod +x .git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg
